0:00.0	Purple Insider is presented by Liquid Death, delicious water that's bringing death to plastic.
0:05.7	Learn more at Liquiddeath.com. Insider. Oh, Hello welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Collar here.
0:29.8	It is once again time for a Monday morning Murph and Murph after yesterday where the Miami
0:37.1	Dolphins lost to the Packers. The Packers stay alive. Now they have to beat the Vikings at Lambo to possibly make their way into the
0:46.0	playoffs, which looks pretty realistic because they just need to win two and then have the
0:51.5	commanders lose one game.
0:54.1	But then I had a little cold water port on me because if the Vikings lose this game
0:59.8	and San Francisco wins two, then there won't be a collision course matchup between the Vikings and Packers at US Bank Stadium, which I thought could you get any more perfect for the drama of the 2022 season?
1:14.6	So that is possible.
1:16.4	Like that remains on the table, but San Francisco would have to lose one.
1:20.0	And since they are just taking Thor's Hammer to every team that they play,

There wasn't going to be a lot at stake. They're going to be resting starters. You know, I kind of wanted to see, I mean, it seems that that Rogers is going to probably come back to Green Bay next year, but there's still that little like, would this be the final time they'd see each other at
2:03.3	Lambo trying to drum up some kind of interest but I really was worried that we
2:07.8	were going to not have anything to discuss meaningfully for another three
2:12.3	weeks and yet Green Bay goes down well you know it snowed in Miami so yesterday I don't know if you saw that so anything is possible this season
2:20.6	Green Bay goes down there falls falls behind 20 to 10, and then I don't know what happened to Tua.
2:27.2	He just decided to become Blake Mortals or, you know, you're the backup king give me a comparison for Tua's second half
2:36.0	comparison to any other scrub so yeah I look this week is huge for Green Bay, obviously.
